Changing the data types in our generics class

Now, to make the code efficiency more obvious, take both of the preceding lines, copy them (Ctrl + C) and paste them (Ctrl + V) beneath these and just change it to double, as follows:

GenericsClass<double> dubs = new GenericsClass<double>(new double[] {1, 2, 3, 4, 5});
sampLabel.Text = ints.DisplayValues();

We'll call this one dubs and change the name here to double: it's the same code, the same class, and the same generic class that you can operate on the doubles. Again, to emphasize this one more time, and to see that flexibility and code reuse is really the purpose here; that is, the ability to reuse code, we'll now take both of these new lines, copy and paste them below once more, and just change double to decimal, as follows:

GenericsClass<decimal> decs = new GenericsClass<decimal>(new decimal[] { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 });
sampLabel.Text = ints.DisplayValues();

Let's call this one decs. Now, of course, if you want to make things a little more interesting, you can throw in some decimals:

GenericsClass<double> dubs = new GenericsClass<double>(new double[] { 1.0, -2.3, 3, 4, 5 });
sampLabel.Text = ints.DisplayValues();
GenericsClass<decimal> decs = new GenericsClass<decimal>(new decimal[] { 1, 2.0M, 3, 4, 5.79M });
sampLabel.Text = ints.DisplayValues();
